The Cosmic Serpent
The Cosmic Serpent | Jeremy Narby
This adventure in science and imagination, which the Medical Tribune said might herald "a Copernican revolution for the life sciences," leads the reader through unexplored jungles and uncharted aspects of mind to the heart of knowledge.In a first-person narrative of scientific discovery that opens new perspectives on biology, anthropology, and the limits of rationalism, The Cosmic Serpent reveals how startlingly different the world around us appears when we open our minds to it.

Interesting! This author attempts to link the hallucinations of indigenous Amazonian shamans to DNA.

I don't have a scientific background big enough to validate these hypothesis against, but I thought it was an interesting read nonetheless. Made me think.

I'd wanted to read this when it first came out but never got around to it. And I'm glad I waited, because it clarified my thinking about aspects of my own writing that needed some clarity. But beyond that I found it a fascinating examination of mythological imagery, shamanism, hallucinogenic substances, and DNA.

Listening to the Narby, wishing I could read The Miranda at the same time. Wouldn't that be great? I would totes read several books at the same time if I could.
